Description

Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of miniature aircrafts, in particular to a miniature double-flapping-wing aircraft.
Background
With the continuous innovation of the design concept of the aircraft and the great progress of the microelectronic technology at the end of the last century, the micro aircraft is proposed and rapidly developed. The micro aircraft has the characteristics of small volume, light weight, strong maneuverability and the like, is suitable for detection, exploration, assistance rescue and other works in complex environments, and has wide application prospect. The bionic micro flapping wing aircraft is taken as an important branch of the micro aircraft, and gradually appears along with the development of the bionic design. The flapping wing micro air vehicle generates lift force by means of reciprocating flapping of the flapping wings, generates control torque by means of fine control on flapping processes of the flapping wings, can keep higher aerodynamic efficiency and sensitive maneuverability under the condition of low Reynolds number, and has flight capabilities of vertical take-off and landing, hovering and the like.
The insect-imitating flapping wing aircraft simulates flying organisms such as bees and flies in the nature, most of the insect-imitating flapping wing aircraft is provided with a pair of wings, and the lift force and the control moment of the insect-imitating flapping wing aircraft are generated by only one pair of wings, so that the problems of insufficient lift force, low rudder control efficiency, complex control scheme and the like of the insect-imitating flapping wing aircraft generally exist. In order to solve the problems, a miniature double-flapping wing aircraft is proposed nowadays, the aircraft is provided with a front pair of flapping wings and a rear pair of flapping wings, the lift force is increased due to the increase of the number of the wings, the moment control and the attitude control are performed on the integral control of the front pair of flapping wings and the rear pair of flapping wings, and the difficulty in controlling the rudder effect and the control design is reduced. The characteristics provide an effective scheme for developing a high-load micro aircraft.
With the research of the micro double-flapping wing aircraft, the performance of the current micro double-flapping wing aircraft still needs to be optimized and improved, especially on the design of a lift force generation and control system. The conventional micro double-flapping-wing aircraft adopts a mode of increasing the number of flapping wings to realize lift increase, but in order to avoid interference among multiple wings, the flapping amplitude of each flapping wing is greatly reduced, so that the lift generated by each flapping wing is also reduced, and therefore various non-constant high lift mechanisms need to be further explored and applied to the aircraft. On the other hand, the existing miniature double-flapping-wing aircraft mostly adopts a motor matched with three steering engines to carry out three-degree-of-freedom control. Every steering wheel all needs installation space and supporting fixing device, and this has increased the weight and the complexity of mechanism, and every steering wheel respectively has a control variable in addition, also needs the flight control system for its supporting solitary control signal passageway, and this also makes the control law complicated, has improved the degree of difficulty of design. Therefore, in order to further improve and improve the flight performance of the micro double-flapping-wing aircraft, a design scheme of the micro double-flapping-wing aircraft with higher lift force generation capacity, a control scheme and a simple control rate is still developed.

The reduction gear set comprises a main shaft gear, a double-layer gear and a large gear; the main shaft gear is installed on an output shaft of the hollow cup motor, the large gear and the double-layer gear are installed on the base, and the upper gear and the lower gear of the double-layer gear are respectively meshed with the main shaft gear and the large gear. The high-speed rotating motion output by the coreless motor drives the double-layer gear and the large gear in sequence through the main shaft gear to realize speed reduction; and the bull gear is provided with a driving connecting rod mounting hole for mounting a driving connecting rod of the flapping angle amplifying mechanism.

Two ends of the driving connecting rod are provided with two driving connecting rod connecting holes; the two ends of the Z-shaped connecting rod are provided with a Z-shaped connecting rod connecting hole and a Z-shaped connecting rod connecting groove, and the middle of the Z-shaped connecting rod is provided with a Z-shaped connecting rod middle hole; two ends of the arc connecting rod are provided with two arc connecting rod connecting holes; one end of the rocker is provided with a rocker connecting hole, the other end of the rocker is provided with a main wing rod mounting hole along the axial direction, and the middle of the rocker is provided with a rocker middle hole; the first driving connecting rod connecting hole is hinged with the driving connecting rod mounting hole to form a crank, the second driving connecting rod connecting hole is hinged with the two Z-shaped connecting rod connecting grooves to form a hinge point, and the hinge point is constrained in the sliding groove at the top of the base to slide; the Z-shaped connecting rod is hinged to a Z-shaped connecting rod mounting hole of the base through a Z-shaped connecting rod middle hole, and the Z-shaped connecting rod connecting hole is hinged to the first arc connecting rod connecting hole; the second arc connecting rod connecting hole is hinged with the middle hole of the rocker; the rocker is hinged with the base rocker mounting hole through the rocker connecting hole, and the main wing rod mounting hole is fixedly connected with the main wing rod; the flapping angle amplifying mechanism amplifies the small-amplitude reciprocating motion of the driving connecting rod into large-amplitude swing of the rocker. In order to fully apply the 'opening-closing' high lift mechanism of multi-wing flapping, the distance between each pair of flapping wings when the flapping wings are swung to the extreme positions is the closest, and the force transmission characteristic of the link mechanism and the spatial position interference when the two pairs of flapping wings are swung limit the angle between the two extreme positions of the single-wing flapping, so that the angle between the two extreme positions of the single-wing flapping is designed to be 110-120 degrees, and the 'opening-closing' high lift mechanism principle of the multi-wing flapping is met.
The flapping wing is composed of a wing membrane, a main wing rod, an auxiliary wing rod and a wing root rod. The wing membrane is a flexible film, is usually made of polyethylene materials and the like, and is in a bionic flapping wing shape. The main wing rod is adhered to the front edge of the wing membrane, and the auxiliary wing rod is adhered to the wing membrane and forms a 30-degree angle with the main wing rod. The wing root rod is adhered to the left side of the wing membrane in a flat state of the wing membrane and forms a 110-120 degree angle with the front edge of the wing membrane, and after the flapping wing is installed, the wing root rod is perpendicular to the main wing rod, so that the wing membrane is loosened after installation. In the flapping process, the main wing rod drives the auxiliary wing rod and the wing membrane to flap in a high-frequency reciprocating mode, the auxiliary wing rod and the wing membrane deform under the action of inertia force and pneumatic force, the maximum deformation of the wing membrane is restrained by the position of the wing root rod, and the attack angle at the position of the flapping wing span-wise area second moment at the middle moment of up-down flapping is 25-35 degrees so as to maintain high pneumatic efficiency. By changing the positions of the wing root rod, the tension degree of the wing membrane can be changed, and then the upper and lower flapping angles of attack are changed to generate different aerodynamic force and aerodynamic moment.
The wing root position control mechanism is H-shaped, wing root rod positioning holes are formed in four end points to restrain the wing root rods, and a steering engine arm connecting groove is formed in the middle beam; the attitude control steering engine is a microminiature high-torque rotary steering engine and is arranged at the lower part of the middle connecting structure, and one end of a steering engine arm is fixedly connected with a rivet; during flight control, the rotary motion of the rudder horn makes the rivets at the end part generate circular arc motion tracks, the rivets slide back and forth in the connecting grooves of the rudder horn to drive the wing root position control mechanism to move left and right, so that the rotating angle of the attitude control steering engine is converted into horizontal movement of the wing root position control mechanism, the left and right positions of the wing root rod are changed, and the flapping wing is controlled to obtain pneumatic control torque.
The main principle of the miniature double-flapping-wing aircraft for generating high lift force by applying an opening-closing mechanism is as follows: in the flapping process, the included angle between the two extreme positions of the single wing is about 110 degrees; when flapping on the flapping wings, the flapping wings move oppositely and move oppositely on the same side, when the flapping wings are at the extreme position, the flapping wings are closed oppositely and adjacent left and right under the action of the deceleration inertia force, the wing tips of the two flapping wings are attached together after deforming, and then the flapping wings rotate downwards along with the upward flapping, the two flapping wings move reversely, and the wing membranes attached originally are opened quickly under the driving of the main wing rod. According to the aerodynamic principle, the two flapping wings can generate significant high lift force in the processes of fast closing and opening, and the high lift force can greatly supplement the lift force generated by the traditional flapping motion, so that the high lift effect is realized.
A rolling control torque generation method of a miniature double-flapping-wing aircraft comprises the following steps: when the aircraft needs right rolling torque, the attitude control steering engine rotates anticlockwise, and the wing root position control mechanism drives the wing root rods of the front and rear pairs of flapping wings to translate rightwards at the same time, so that the left flapping wing membrane is tensioned, the lifting force is increased, the right flapping wing membrane is relaxed, the lifting force is reduced, right rolling control torque is generated, and the right rolling action of the aircraft is completed; when the aircraft needs a roll moment, the attitude control steering engine rotates clockwise, the wing root position control mechanism drives the front and rear two pairs of flapping wing root rods to simultaneously translate leftwards, so that the flapping wing membranes on the right side are tensioned, the lift force is increased, the flapping wing membranes on the left side are relaxed, the lift force is reduced, a roll control moment is generated, and then the roll action of the aircraft is completed.
A pitch control moment generation method of a miniature double-flapping-wing aircraft comprises the following steps: when the aircraft needs a head raising moment, the rotating speed of the hollow cup motor at the front end rises, the rotating speed of the hollow cup motor at the rear end falls, the main shaft gear and the reduction gear set are respectively driven by the front hollow cup motor and the rear hollow cup motor, the flapping wings are driven to flap reciprocally through the flapping angle amplifying mechanism, the flapping frequency of the front flapping wings is increased, the lift force is increased, the flapping frequency of the rear flapping wings is reduced, the lift force is reduced, a pitching control moment is generated, and the head raising action of the aircraft is completed; when the aircraft needs a head lowering moment, the rotating speed of the hollow cup motor at the rear end rises, the rotating speed of the hollow cup motor at the front end falls, the main shaft gear and the reduction gear set are respectively driven by the front hollow cup motor and the rear hollow cup motor, the flapping wings are driven to flap reciprocally through the flapping angle amplifying mechanism, the flapping frequency of the flapping wings at the rear is increased, the lift force is increased, the flapping frequency of the flapping wings at the front is reduced, the lift force is reduced, a pitching control moment is generated, and the head lowering action of the aircraft is completed.
